Single-Sex Education To print AAUW position papers on letterhead, use this pdf The American Association of University Women (AAUW) is committed to attaining an equitable learning environment for all students in our nation's coeducational public schools. AAUW believes that stronger public schools can improve student achievement. Policy-makers must look for solutions that benefit coeducational public schools, which more than 90 percent of elementary and secondary students attend. Within public education, single-sex classes must be initiated in response to demonstrated need and be designed to inform and improve the coeducational school system where the majority of students continue to learn. Further, schools must comply with relevant civil rights laws, Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 (the federal law prohibiting sex discrimination in educational institutions receiving federal fun),and the Constitution's equal protection principles as articulated by the U.S. Supreme Court.

Extractions: May 21, 2003 News Release Washington, D.C. - Despite the vital importance of education to Americans, critical investments in U.S. public schools remain stagnant, according to a state-by-state report released today by the National Education Association (NEA). The report, titled (PDF, 1M, 127 pages), paints a difficult funding picture for public education nationwide. Despite rising enrollments and a growing need for qualified teachers in many areas of the country, the average expenditure per student and the average salary of a public school teacher for the 2001-2002 school year increased only slightly over the previous year. Over the last 10 years, teacher salaries have remained flat, growing just 2.4 percent during that time period, or approximately 0.2 percent per year when the cost of living is factored in. Nineteen states and the District of Columbia saw real declines in average teacher salaries over the years 1991-92 to 2001-02, adjusted for inflation. Those with average salaries declining 5 percent or more: Alaska (-13.6%), Connecticut (-11%), Vermont (-9%), Wisconsin (-6.4%), New York (-6.3%), New Hampshire (-6.1%), Nevada (-6%), Kansas (-5.8%), and the District of Columbia (-5.3%) (Chart C-14). The study shows that the federal government's share of the public education dollar was 7.5% in 2001-2002 not enough to cover the cost of federally mandated education programs. State and local governments will need a larger share from the federal government in order to put the federal education mandates in place without sacrificing other programs. By failing to fully finance the new No Child Left Behind Act, which was enacted in 2002, the federal government will be undermining state and local governments' ability to find ways to attract qualified teachers into joining and staying in the profession, modernize existing schools and build new ones, and provide students with the programs, materials and books they need to meet the high standards envisioned by the new law.
